Data Quality

Key Benefits of Data Ingestion

Harmonize Disparate Sources

Merge data from various formats and systems into a single source of truth, ensuring maximum data quality across your enterprise.

Standardize Supplier Data

Implement clear structures for collating data from suppliers, transforming fragmented inputs into a standardized stream.

Enhance Data Granularity

Connect different data systems to increase granularity, moving from rough estimates to precise, shipment-level insights.

Automate Calculations

Achieve an automated process for data ingestion that results in efficient emissions calculation and reduced manual effort.

“Thanks to shipzero’s profound data granularity approach and focus on primary data integration, our data accuracy improves significantly – we are gaining a full overview of transport emissions within our supply chain.”

Unified Data Landscape

Advanced Data Harmonization

shipzero consolidates data from multiple, diverse source systems and formats, automatically mapping them into a unified data model. This harmonization creates a reliable foundation for accurate emissions calculations across your enterprise.

  • Consolidate diverse source systems and formats
  • Automated mapping to shipzero’s data model
  • Single, harmonized dataset for emissions calculations

Validated Methodology

Automated Validation & Compliance

Our platform automatically performs plausibility, completeness, and quality checks on ingested data. This ensures compliance with ISO 14083 and the GLEC Framework, providing an audit-ready trail for your emissions reporting.

  • Plausibility, completeness and quality checks
  • ISO 14083 and GLEC-compliant inputs
  • Audit-ready trail for emissions data

Pilot Foundation

Scalable Ingestion Blueprint

We begin with a pilot project to map data interdependencies and test samples, creating a documented blueprint for scalable data ingestion. This phased approach ensures a smooth rollout across your entire enterprise.

  • Pilot project to map interdependencies and sample data
  • Documented, scalable ingestion blueprint
  • Phased rollout across your enterprise

Efficiency & Documentation

Achieve Automated Data Flow

Move away from manual data handling. Achieving an automated process for data ingestion results in efficient emissions calculation and thorough documentation of the process itself, saving time and reducing errors.

  • Streamline emissions calculation
  • Document ingestion processes automatically
  • Reduce manual data handling

Transform fragmented data into a unified backbone

shipzero helps you harmonize sources, automate ingestion, and build a scalable foundation that ensures data quality and compliance.

FAQs

Do you have questions about implementing Data Ingestion as cargo owner? We've compiled answers to common inquiries based on our experience helping large organizations harmonize their logistics data for verifiable decarbonization.

How does shipzero handle data from different suppliers with different formats?

We structure and standardize data collation from your suppliers. Our platform ingests various formats and harmonizes them into a single standard based on iLeap principles, ensuring consistency regardless of the source system. This eliminates the manual effort of cleaning disparate spreadsheets from multiple carriers.

Is the data ingestion process compliant with international standards?

Yes. The data we ingest fuels calculations that are fully validated against ISO 14083 and the latest version of the GLEC Framework. This ensures that your data foundation supports compliant and accredited reporting, giving you reliance on accurate emissions calculations.

We have a complex IT landscape. How do we ensure this works for us?

We recommend starting with a pilot project. This allows us to create a blueprint for emission data ingestion, testing data samples to understand interdependencies before rolling out the process enterprise-wide. This phased approach ensures a stable and effective integration.

Does connecting more systems actually improve our emissions data?

Absolutely. Connecting different data systems increases data granularity. By ingesting primary data from multiple sources (TMS, telematics, carrier files), we move beyond averages to precise, shipment-level calculations that reflect your actual transport reality.

Can the data ingestion process be automated?

Yes, automation is a key goal. We help you achieve an automated process for data ingestion, which not only speeds up emissions calculations but also provides a documented audit trail of how data flows into the system, ensuring transparency and efficiency.
